TESTIMONIALS



"A very inspiring and enjoyable event, led by a top-class facilitator. Thank you, Marietta.”

D. Railton, Marketing Strategist, Bath


 


PARACHUTE WORKSHOP CONTENT
Do you feel stuck in a rut at work? Would you like to change career and feel passionate about work? Are you wondering how to find your actual vocation? This workshop is for those who want to change how they work and get inspired by new career options. On day 1, participants are introduced to the concept of ‘Vocation’ based on Richard Bolles’ career guide ‘What Colour is Your Parachute’. Going beyond their CV, participants will learn enjoyable and fascinating exercises to clarify their favourite skills, and favourite fields (special knowledges). Already at this stage, an outline of surprising career and lifestyle possibilities can emerge.
On day 2, participants’ personal inventory is enriched by exploring their unique values and mission statement, as well as favourite people environments, desired working conditions, and preferred geographical location. Participants will come away with an at-a-glance visual representation of their vocational options, and a motivating action plan to go with it.

 

Presentations, discussion, individual exercises, and small group work are combined to make for a stimulating & inspiring workshop. The friendly and relaxed environment of the venue of your choice will contribute to your comfort throughout the weekend. Events include lunch, refreshments and course materials.


WORKSHOPS DESIGNED FOR YOUR TEAM
Exploring vocation in a group can be particularly motivating. The exchange with other participants can lead to deeper insight, a wider range of fresh ideas, and expanded networks. RealVocation will work closely with you to design the optimal workshop for your group - in your particular industry.  

Available workshop formats: 1 day, 2 days, or 3 days.
Group size: minimum 6, maximum 18 participants.
